From what the news has shown, [which I can only judge by] the people of Haiti may of found their chance for real change for a better life, that they have wanted to happen for many years but were powerless compared to the Haiti gov, which now the Haiti gov is now on the same lvl as them. F'ed
A civil war will result in the deaths of hundreds of thousands MORE innocent civilians. With civil war, all aid workers will go back home and the Haitians will have absolutely NOTHING for a very long time. What meager resources the government may have would be devoted exclusively to fighting rebels NOT rebuilding. Regardless of how well the current government may be doing, a civil war will be more disastrous to the nation than the earthquake.
